My one-on-one Bangla classes with Dipanwita Saha have been amazing. She has been teaching me for the last four months and uses a combination of the standard textbook and the more traditional Sahaj Paat written by Tagore; and a mix of reading, writing, and speaking exercises. The combination works really well especially the Sahaj Paat, which is a lot of fun and gives you a feel not just for the language but the cultural world of Bangla. I highly recommend Dipanwita as a Bangla teacher for new learners as well as for those who have some elementary knowledge.

I have been working on my written business English with Zabaan for more than a year now and believe that I have improved my skills a lot. The credit goes to Zabaan and the tailor made classes of my teacher Mr. Saraf. Thanks a lot!

I took an intensive beginner Hindi course with Zabaan for a month in Delhi in 2019. The teachers were incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated. The course was fast paced but comprehensive. Since returning to Australia I have begun online lessons with Rachayta. She is a fantastic teacher who is able to explain the origin and cultural context of words. She has made Hindi grammar easier to understand with plenty of examples; and she caters the lessons to my interests. I highly recommend learning Hindi at Zabaan.

Zabaan is a professionally run school for language lovers. Having studied both Hindi and Urdu at Zabaan for over two years, I have nothing but praise for the hard work all the staff puts in to make learning interesting, inspiring and efficient. Teachers are well trained, friendly and understand the difficulties students face with a new language and/or script. Extra points for the online booking system. Shabash Zabaan!

At Zabaan, she teaches Punjabi at the C2 / Advanced level, working with students on reading, listening, idioms, proverbs, and stylistic nuances. Her teaching is grounded in Punjabi literature, poetry, and oral traditions, and places strong emphasis on confident, natural use of the language.
